ريبوسادو إستيت كونيتيكت روبوستو

That Connecticut wrapper is silky smooth and gives off a creamy smoke from the very first draw. The mild-to-medium body is perfect for an afternoon break, and it stayed consistent right down to the nub.

The burn stayed razor sharp from first light to the final third, which is rare for a mild Connecticut. The Nicaraguan filler gives it just enough body to keep things interesting without ever turning harsh. Solid everyday smoke that won't punish you if you're in a hurry.

The pre-light aroma on this Robusto was noticeably sweet, and the draw offered just the right amount of resistance. Burned evenly down to a fine ash, making it a very relaxing afternoon smoke.
